Described by J.M. Synge as "a comedy, an extravaganza, made to use", The Playboy of the Western World is one of the most iconic plays to have come out of Ireland in the 20th century and is today recognised as a staple of the dramatic canon. It is published as a new Student Edition, which offers a 21st century lens on a play over 100 years old.
When it was first performed in 1907 at Dublin's Abbey Theatre, Synge's play provoked uproar and was interrupted more than once by the police. Today, we recognise its importance in making Irish drama the force it became in the early 20th century.
John Millington Synge, a leading figure in the Irish literary renaissance and one of Ireland's most celebrated writers, powerfully and poetically describes the harsh rural life on the West Coast of Ireland in his six plays:
In the Shadow of the Glen
Riders to the Sea
The Well of the Saints
The Playboy of the Western World
The Tinker's Wedding
Deirdre of the Sorrows.
The collected plays is the perfect way to appreciate Synge's powerful passionate drama.

Описание: Golf is a major global industry. It is played by more than 60 million worldwide, and there are more than 32,000 courses across the globe in 140 countries including Africa, Central America and Central Asia. It is a sport that has particularly appealed to the wealthy and powerful, though it is increasingly successful in attracting both golfers and spectators from a wide range of demographics. Golf has attracted criticism regarding its impact on the environment, with particular concerns about its use of pesticides and the resulting effect on both wildlife and humans, and its excessive use of water. The golf industry has, over time, responded to these and other concerns by stressing their capacity for recognizing and dealing with environmental problems. There are, however, reasons to be sceptical about the golf industry's environmental leadership, or, indeed, corporate environmentalism in general. This book looks at the power relationships in and around golf examining whether the industry has demonstrated such leadership on environmental matters that the government can trust them to make weighty decisions that have implications for public health, and what it is about sport and leisure in general and golf in particular that has inspired such latitude from government. This is the first comprehensive study of the varying impacts of golf on the environment, It is based on extensive empirical research, including interviews with major stakeholders in the golf industry and members of protest groups. The authors examine golf as a sport and as a global industry, drawing on three discrete literatures - the study of sport as a global social movement, environmental sociology and the study of corporate environmentalism.

Описание: While the family has traditionally been a secondary consideration in rehabilitation, this graduate text presents an innovative approach to rehabilitation counselling that focuses on the family as the centre of a person-cantered model, rather than as an adjunct to individual counselling. It advocates counselling in the context of community, requiring the recognition of social transaction as the primary focus of all interventions. The book provides the tools and knowledge base to effectively work with the family and within the community, delivering a new inclusive model of care and establishing best practices in research, practice, training, and management.The text examines the rationale for embracing family values in rehabilitation counselling and provides a framework that redefines the relationship between counsellor and client in the context of family and community. It describes the community-based rehabilitation model in detail according to the International Classification of Function (ICF) and presents a series of illustrative disability profiles-distilled from systematic reviews of the literature--reflecting this framework. In each case, the impact upon family participation is illustrated and optimal service and support resources are identified. The role and function of the rehabilitation counsellor provides the integrative conclusion to each chapter.The book also describes grassroots initiatives, the role of family in community-based rehabilitation in developing countries, family policy across rehabilitation systems, and best practices in research, training, and management. Each chapter includes an overview, learning objectives, study questions, and class activities. Appendices feature a catalogue of ICF-framed instruments that can be used in course activities and practice. Additionally, the text comes with access to an Instructor's Manual including case studies with discussion questions, classroom activities, and multiple-choice questions.Key Features:Describes an innovative family/community-focused approach to rehabilitation counselling, framed in ICF taxonomyPresents a pragmatic model that can be put to use immediatelyDescribes an array of family experiences across disability contexts, providing an opportunity to critique current practice through the lens of community-based constructsProvides plentiful case studies and discussion questions based on family narrativesBroadens the scope of practice with service initiatives from around the worldIncludes an Instructor's Manual with case studies with discussion questions, classroom activities, and multiple-choice questions
